What a way to start the week! Body-worshipped Hollywood brass Christina Hendricks (of Mad Men fame) and Olivia Munn (of, uh, yeah...) have their bodies posted across the internet due to unwanted cellphone prying. Yes, it happened, again.

The images—grainy and certainly phone-birthed—range from salacious to full on bare-breasted. Hendricks' people deny on the fully nude shot. Munn, on the other hand? Who knows! Does she have a publicity rep, or do her creepy nerd fanboys speak for her through Reddit? We're awaiting a statement. We do know that her pics—allegedly intended for a boyfriend at the time—date back to 2009, and were taken on two different BlackBerries, judging by EXIF data stored inside the images.

But the lesson here remains the same. As we said when this happened to ScarJo: If You Are Famous and Take Nude Photos of Yourself, They Will End Up on the Internet.

That code could persuade it to do things it usually wouldn't want to do, like shipping out photos to unintended recipients.

More likely, though-and more applicable to you and me-security experts suspect that someone broke into an online service that stored the pictures, not the phone itself. (In other words, no Swordfish antics here. Your BlackBerrys and iPhones are safe!) If she emailed the pics to the person she intended to please, or used a photo syncing service to send her photos to the cloud for sharing, a simple compromised password or a lame security question is all it took to give the hacker entry.
